[Bug 148311] Re: subtitle editor can't generate waveforms from ogg files

2008-08-20 Thread Stephen Drake
This bug was also being tracked upstream at https://gna.org/bugs/?10542
and http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=542064

The symptoms exist on Ubuntu 8.04, but as commented at the above
trackers, it appears to be fixed in Intrepid. So I'm happy for it to be
closed.

[Bug 195933] [NEW] Doesn't appear in Hardy's Applications menu

2008-02-26 Thread Stephen Drake
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: subtitleeditor

I've installed subtitleeditor on Hardy Heron Alpha 5 and it doesn't
appear in the Gnome Application menu.

After looking at the /usr/share/applications/subtitleeditor.desktop file
I can see that it has a mistake in the Type line. It should be
Type=application, not Type=audio because this is not a valid entry
according to the freedesktop.org spec.

The icon value is also wrong. It should be Icon=subtitleeditor.png

[Bug 157288] Re: [network-admin] wpa-psk passphrases with spaces not written to interfaces file

2007-12-18 Thread Stephen Drake
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 50386 ***
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/50386

It's subtly different because the key entered is used with the essid to
create a hex key and then written to the interfaces file. The WEP key is
just written straight to the file.

Why this wasn't fixed when WPA support was added I've no idea.

[Bug 156900] Re: Gutsy: wireless access manager that worked has disappeared

2007-10-25 Thread Stephen Drake
It sounds like you have turned of roaming mode for your wireless
interface.

If you want the nm-applet to show connection status and provide the
drop-down list of networks, you have to go into the interface properties
and tick Enable roaming mode.

[Bug 157288] [network-admin] wpa-psk passphrases with spaces not written to interfaces file

2007-10-25 Thread Stephen Drake
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-system-tools

I switch my wireless interface from roaming mode (where it works) to a
static configuration. When I enter my WPA-PSK passphrase and click Ok,
it just fails without any warning. Checking the /etc/network/interfaces
file shows that the correct mode and essid are set, but there is no key
listed.

If I enter the passphrase again with quotes around it, it correctly
generates the hex key and puts it into the interfaces file.

To me this suggests that network-admin can't support spaces in the wpa-
psk.

I'm using subtitle editor 0.13.6 on Gutsy Gibbon Beta. I can open .spx

It deactivates the connection, according to iwevent the address is Not-
Associated and it sets the essid to  and the encryption key to off.
The interface is still working and I can still see the network list from
nm-applet.

I suppose what I would like is for more feedback from Network Manager, I
just wasn't sure whether this is a Debian/Ubuntu issue or an upstream NM
issue. I understand that the vanilla NM is modified to integrate better
into the Ubuntu desktop i.e. roaming mode.

[Bug 84103] Re: network manager disables wireless if dhcp times out

2007-09-04 Thread Stephen Drake
I have tried a Gutsy Tribe 5 desktop CD and the problem still exists.
Only now nm-applet does not pop up the dialogue for a new key, it just
disables the interface. During it's attempts to connect I can
successfully ping my other Ubuntu PC via it's IPv6 address. So I know
that the connection along with it's WPA encryption works.

From the syslog (see attached), I can see that after dhcp fails the
interface is disabled, even though avahi-autoip has been enabled. What's
the point of avahi-autoip if it's not going to be allowed to work?

Two more tries and it gets an address from the DHCP server and the
interface is up and working. So this is only a problem when DHCP fails.

[Bug 110602] m-a fails to detect xp install on second partition

2007-04-27 Thread Stephen Drake
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: migration-assistant

I'm installing Ubuntu 7.04 Desktop cd on a HP Compaq Presario SR1139uk.
It has a pre-existing factory installation of Windows XP with two
partitions. The first is recognised as /dev/hdc1 with a FAT32
filesystem. The second as /dev/hdc2 with NTFS , which has the XP system
files and user settings.

During install I resized the second partition as guided and it created
swap and root partitions in the freed space. Next the migration
assistant started and was unable to find the Windows user account. I
restarted the live cd and tried again, but it won't detect the accounts
on hdc2.

I will attach the log files.

2007-04-24 Thread Stephen Drake
Default routes should not have anything to do with what I'm trying to
achieve, I just want to add a network to a routing table via a router. I
tried it out and found that even if I do add a default route it doesn't
make any difference.

You could be right about the interface though, I don't seem to be able to force 
the routing table to use eth0:avahi.

Think of this as ICS, with a link-local subnet hidden behind a NAT. I
also have a squid proxy on this subnet and I can connect through that

[Bug 102865] avahi-autoipd in roaming mode set ip address to 0.0.0.0

2007-04-04 Thread Stephen Drake
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: avahi-autoipd

I have set up a wired network with a hub, one Feisty PC and one Edgy PC.
Edgy has a connection to an external network which uses DHCP, but on the
private wired network it has a static address in the Link local address
range (169.254.2.102). When I boot Feisty it doesn't find a DHCP server,
so it falls back to avahi-autoip (169.254.6.101).  I test the connection
and both can ping each other successfully, I can also resolve mDNS/avahi
services.

Now, I have enabled IP forwarding and NAT on Edgy because I want Feisty
to be able to access the external network. Previously it was enough to
add a route to the external network via Edgy. So I do this on Feisty and
it doesn't work, I can't ping any PCs on the external network from
Feisty.

Using tcpdump on Edgy I can see that Feisty is using the 0.0.0.0 IP address. If 
I specify Feisty's IP address in ping then I get replies, 
i.e. ping -I 169.254.6.101 192.168.0.1 is successful.

So avahi-autoip allows access to the local netowork, but won't access
external networks. Is this the intended behaviour? It means that I will
have to use a static address instead.

Thanks

[Bug 84103] Re: network manager disables wireless if dhcp times out

2007-03-19 Thread Stephen Drake
I have noticed that auto-ip does start and it able to configure the
interface and connect to the multicast group. I can even use avahi-
discovery to see the available services.

However Network Manager still pops up a dialog asking for a new
password. If I leave it alone I can continue to use the network through
auto-ip, but if I enter the password or click cancel the interface is
reset and I lose the connection while I wait for it to time out again.

Why does this happen? How can I stop Network Manager asking for a new
key when the one it has is clearly working?

[Bug 89187] Aspell autobuild fails (en) during alternate install of Feisty

2007-03-02 Thread Stephen Drake
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: aspell-en

I'm installing Feisty Herd 5 candidate 20070228.1 Alternate i386.

Install proceeds okay until at about 95-97% I get this error:

[!!] dictionaries-common: Running aspell-autobuildhash
  Problems rebuilding an aspell hash file (en)

This error was caused by package providing 'en', although it can be 
made evident during other package postinst. Please complain to the
maintainer of package providing 'en'.

Until this problem is fixed you will not be able to use aspell with
'en'.

Next I am informed that an installation step has failed at 'Select and install 
software'.
I proceed to skip that step and install grub. However, grub fails to install. 
Result is an unbootable system.

[Bug 84641] Re: Wireless card (Atheros) no longer detected after upgrade to kernel 2.6.17-11

2007-02-26 Thread Stephen Drake
Sorry for the long delay, I should have subscribed earlier.

The kernel modules needed to interface with the Atheros card need to be
installed alongside the new kernel due to ABI changes.

This should be taken care of by the linux-restricted-modules package,
which depends on the latest version. For some reason this wasn't
installed (sometimes it's removed due to conflicts, such as non-free
nvidia drivers). So if you install that package you should be okay for
future updates.

So please add that package and try to run the updates, if anything is to
be removed then cancel and check them over. Otherwise you should be okay
to proceed.

2007-02-15 Thread Stephen Drake
Public bug reported:

I have booted the Feisty 20070215 Desktop CD and then run the Ubuntu
Device Database. It proceeded okay until the mouse test. I clicked ok,
then on network test it open this crash report.

On this laptop I have no built-in network card, though I do have an
Atheros based wifi cardbus adaptor. I use WPA through Network Manager,
but I hadn't configured it when I ran the test so there was no network
connection.

The wifi card was installed, so there were lo, wifi0 and ath0

[Bug 85362] Atheros card not detected during alternate install

2007-02-15 Thread Stephen Drake
Public bug reported:

Installing using Feisty Alternate 20070215.2 and found my Atheros based
wifi card was not detected during the search for network cards.

This meant after installation I had to install the linux-restricted-
modules packages to make it work.

Although this shows that at least the madwifi modules are working on the
2.6.20 kernel series, it is a regression from Edgy which at least
detected it during install. Even though Edgy didn't make it work after
install like Dapper did.

I can confirm this behavior.

According to the /var/log/auth.log, gksu is attempting to open /usr/bin

targeting /usr/bin/software-properties-gtk.

Synaptic does not have this problem, it appears to only affect the

[Bug 84103] network manager disables wireless if dhcp times out

2007-02-08 Thread Stephen Drake
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: network-manager

I'm using feisty herd 3 updated as of today 8th Jan 2007.

I try to connect to my WPA-PSK wireless network using an atheros wifi
card in my laptop. For some reason sometimes it doesn't want to connect,
even though it has the key stored in gnome-keyring when I select the
ssid in NM it spends a while looking then it asks for a key.

After looping through this multiple times I gave up and switched to NM
--no-daemon mode. From what I could tell I was able to connect to the AP
and then DHCP sent out a discover. After a minute or so it just fails.
If we are supposed to be falling back to avahi, then why does avahi-
autoip not kick in at this point. Especially as I clearly have the
correct key and it has been authenticated by the AP. At least NM should
state that it can't get an address rather than just ask for a new key.

I believe this has been discussed before in bug #30213, however that was
in slightly different circumstances.


On a related note using wireshark from another PC I can see that a DHCP 
discover is being sent from the laptop (ath0) and an offer is sent in reply (at 
least twice). These are obviously not being picked up, however that's another 
issue.

I have this problem on my laptop with a cardbus ethernet adaptor. You
can see in the attached log that the card is detected and after dhcp
fails it is assigned an address via avahi-autoipd. If I then plug in the
cable the kernel reports a link beat and the network works as it is pre-
configured. Then when I remove the cable the kernel reports the lost
link beat, but network manager does nothing.

2007-02-02 Thread Stephen Drake
Sorry I seem to have misled you.

The app opens and runs fine. I just wanted to report the warning. It
seemed like the sort of thing that shouldn't be happening. Particularly
as it's not the kind of app I would expect to be running on start-up.
Perhaps there is a file in the image that's reporting a previous crash.
I honestly don't know, I'm just reporting what I see.

It only seems to do this the first time I boot and installed system. But
it happens every time I boot a live cd.


I seemed to have opened this bug in the ubuntu-iso-tests, that was a mistake. 
Can it be changed or does a new bug have to be filed?

[Bug 79254] Re: defaultdepth not persistant after install

2007-02-01 Thread Stephen Drake
Since feisty is taking too long to install at the moment, I reverted to
Edgy.

The problem is that during install when it comes to configuring the
xserver, I am asked to select the correct resolutions from a list, but
after this there is no choice of colour depth. Even though I selected
800x512x16 at boot, it just goes back to default 24 after install.

So when I reboot, gdm is garbled and switching to a vty doesn't work
either. This means I have to boot in recovery mode to edit the
/etc/X11/xorg.conf file.

Once the defaultdepth is changed to 16. Ubuntu will boot with no
problems. It's the installation process that doesn't work well.

I can't remember exactly, but I think Dapper gave you more options to
select during install. This seems to have been dropped since Edgy. I'm
all for choosing default options, but not if it creates this much of a
headache. Especially for people who want to virtualise Ubuntu and
compare it to Windows.

Are you sure the install has completely stopped?

If you continue to get the message, then it may just be the slow
hardware detection mentioned in the release announcement. On one of my
virtual installs it seemed to take forever, but it went through the
install despite about a million of those kernel: not found.  messages.
I have a 12MB syslog full of them.

Try holding on for 5-10 mins or so and see if you get any other messages

After install the defaultdepth in the /etx/X11/xorg.conf is set back to

[Bug 79117] No mouse in Herd 2 Desktop CD on Virtual PC

2007-01-13 Thread Stephen Drake
Public bug reported:

I have the Herd 2 Desktop CD 20070111.1 and when I use it to boot into
the live environment on Virtual PC 2004 there is no mouse capture. This
means I can't click on anything using the mouse. The best I get is a
dashed line square when I click and drag. Though this might no be
happening in ubuntu because nothing underneath is selected.

Checking dmesg only turns up the line
[  42.056365] mice: PS/2 mouse device common for all mice

There's nothing displayed with lsusb, but this appears to be normal
since it is the same on dapper and the mouse works there.

Checking /proc/bus/input/devices shows no mouse anywhere, on Dapper there is 
an entry for the mouse 
I: Bus=0011 Vendor=0002 Product=000a Version=
N: Name=TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint
...
H: Handlers=mouse0 event2 ts0
...

I realise that this isn't going to be a high priority, but it prevents
me from installing using this CD as I can't get past the locale select
in ubiquity with just a keyboard. Unless there's a way I can't see.

2006-09-29 Thread Stephen Drake
Public bug reported:

I downloaded the edgy beta alternative i386 cd and installed it on my
laptop with an Atheros based D-Link G650 AirPlus Wi-fi PC card. During
install it detected the card and asked for the encryption key and essid.
It then discovered a connection.

After install was completed the wifi card wasn't working. lspci showed
that the card was avaliable,

02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications, Inc. AR5212
802.11abg NIC (rev 01)

but it didn't appear in the output from iwconfig. 
:~$ iwconfig
lono wireless extensions.

sit0  no wireless extensions.

lsmod showed no ath modules loaded, so i tried modprobe ath_hal and
modprobe ath_pci and got

FATAL: Module ath_pci not found.
FATAL: Module ath_hal not found.

I open up synaptic and found that the linux-restricted-modules package
that contains the Madwifi driver was not installed. Additionally I
noticed that neither was the linux-generic package.

After installing the restricted package and issuing sudo modprobe
ath_pci the card turned on and grabbed an ip address. Opening up the
network-admin applet showed that the WEP key was set correctly, which
must have been through the installation process. It also shows up fully
configured in iwconfig. So it works fine now.

Thanks
